Improving torque/power by retaining heat in the primaries (thus the exhaust gasses will flow with higher velocity into the snail). It will make "spool up" very quick... because it will occur in very low rpm's

Here's a pict of a stock manifold with the heat shield removed. The manifold was ceramic coated.

Beautiful Job I thought that coating would be the only viable method to retain heat in the manifold. You must get a real kick in the as$ when the snail wakes up
